I was in a conversation the other day with Dustin Roberts, the representative from district 21. He share some info with me. From what he tells me, much like Wyoming, there will be a bill introduced to nullify any federal laws concerning gun legislation that are passed after 2012. While he couldn't tell me what the bill number was, or who was writing it, he did say that we should see all the bills submitted this Thursday. Which is tomorrow.

Now I normally am more of a pessimist, but I do believe that there is a good possibility that this is true. What say you?

Wyoming and now Texas have both submitted bills that would nullify federal anti-gun regs in their respective states.

One must applaud the effort and intent.

However

One most certainly wonders how such a law would be enforced?

Seriously - if the feds come a knockin' with the intent to take you away what is the state going to do? Who in the employ of the state is going to stop them from haulin' you off? If taken will the state send bodies to retrieve you? Will the state go to war with the feds to get you out of the pokey? Will the state use tax payer dollars to defend you in federal court?

Well!

Will it?

Inquiring minds want to know...

The way in understanding it is that if they try to enforce it, they are arrested an charged with a felony of up to 5yrs hard time.

And yes, it is Tuesday! Lol

Just got through emailing my state rep Mike Sanders. We all need to get on board and start writing, calling, making contact with them. Invite them shooting. Remember, they are our paid reps, our voices. We have to make our voice heard or they think we don't care.

I have better questions. If you defend yourself and kill them while they are in commission of a felony in your state will any survivors within their posse be charged with their death? Will you not be tried because you were defending yourself in the commission of a felony against you where it would be reasonable to believe they would harm you? I mean, they'd have guns and **** right?

WILL THEY?

Inquiring minds want to know.

This would be a good reason to stand your ground and fight off any attempt at gun grabbing. Your actions would be justified under current OK law assuming they pass this making it a felony to try and attempt to take your guns away.

I think the Supremacy Clause will prevent these from kicking in, or being more than symbolic. But, if enough states did it, and those states were more blue than red, that might knock some sense into the DNC/DNP...maybe. Unless berry's goal is to let things go to **** so he can declare marshal law.

We need a lawyer to chime in...

If those a$$holes can ignore the constitution in the first place then why can't the states ignore the supremacy clause? That's the pandoras box they are opening.
